causes any hesitation to Yormack / the Big12? They'd be the ones who would put the final nail in the coffin to kill the Pac-10/12. That would obviously cause a scramble to the rest of the Pac schools, creating more chaos.
The one nice thing about the Pac-10 is that they are clearly an inferior conference at this point. The Big12 is about even with the ACC more or less (people can debate) and obviously well behind the Big10 / SEC.
I just wonder if the Pac-12 death would cause more chaos and instability across the FBS.
